Wireless configuration for Windows® using the Brother automatic installer application (For HL-5370DW) Configuration in Ad-hoc mode 4 Before configuring the wireless settings 4 IMPORTANT The following instructions will install your Brother machine in a network environment using the Brother installer application for Windows® found on the CD-ROM we have provided with the machine. 4 You must know your wireless network settings before you proceed with this installation. Make sure you take notes on all the current settings such as SSID, authentication and encryption of your wireless network environment. If you do not know them, contact your network administrator. Item Communication mode: (Ad-hoc) Network name: (SSID, ESSID) Authentication method: (Open System) Encryption mode: (None, WEP) Network key: (Encryption key, WEP key 1, Passphrase) Example Ad-hoc HELLO Open System Record the current wireless network settings WEP 12345 1 The WEP key is for 64-bit encrypted networks or 128-bit encrypted networks and can contain both numbers and letters. If you do not know this information you should see the documentation provided with your access point or wireless router. This key is a 64-bit or 128-bit value that must be entered in an ASCII or HEXADECIMAL format. For example: 64-bit ASCII: 64-bit Hexadecimal: 128-bit ASCII: 128-bit Hexadecimal: Uses 5 text characters e.g. "Hello" (this is case sensitive) Uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data e.g. "71f2234aba" Uses 13 text characters e.g. "Wirelesscomms" (this is case sensitive) Uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data e.g. "71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa3ba" If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the printer, you must reset the print server back to its factory default settings (see Reset the network settings to the factory default on page 118). If you are using Windows® Firewall or a firewall function of anti-spyware or antivirus applications, temporarily disable them. Once you are sure that you can print, configure the software settings following the instructions. 46
